About Warren Township

Warren Township is a predominantly residential Somerset County community characterized by wooded neighborhoods, preserved open space, local farms and garden centers, school campuses, commercial clusters along Mountain Boulevard and Washington Valley Road, and a significant business corridor near I-78. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated 17,753 residents in 2025, up from 15,923 at the 2020 Census.

Unlike a traditional compact downtown, Warren’s activity is distributed among several neighborhood shopping and office areas. That makes accurate addresses and municipal boundaries especially important: nearby Watchung, Green Brook, Long Hill, Berkeley Heights, Basking Ridge and Martinsville are separate communities and are not treated as Warren listings on NJTGO.

Commuting & getting around

I-78 provides Warren’s primary regional highway access, with I-287, Route 22 and surrounding Somerset/Morris/Union County employment areas within easy driving reach. Warren also operates a resident-focused Park & Ride pilot at Warren Corporate Center, 300 Warren Corporate Center Drive, with weekday Lakeland express bus service to New York City under the township’s current 2026 program.

Park & Ride note: The township states that the 2026 program is a pilot, is intended for eligible Warren residents commuting to New York for work, and is not guaranteed for the entire year. Permits are issued through the township process.
